St. Patrick’s Day and Car Accidents
St. Patrick’s Day Drinking
USNews.com reports that 13 Million Pints of Guinness will be consumed worldwide on Saint Patrick’s Day. Originally a tribute to the patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick’s Day is now the fourth most popular drinking holiday after New Year’s, Christmas, and the Fourth of July. Besides the obvious health dangers of binge drinking, St. Patrick’s Day also creates a dangerous situation on the Valley’s roads and freeways. Indeed, every 46 minutes an alcohol-related crash claims a life on March 17.
